Blind Association program to air Sunday

    The Precious Gift of Sight is the topic of this Sunday's WBRE-TV Newsmakers 
with Senior Producer Jayne Ann Bugda and Anchorman Andy Mehalshick.

  Guests joining Jayne Ann and Andy will be representatives from the Blind 
Association to talk about their many programs not only for the Blind and 
visually impaired but for everyone with a vision concern.  The panel will 
include  Lori Lesante, President of the Hazleton Association for the Blind , 
Jeanne Stapleton, Caseworker at the Hazleton Association for the Blind , and 
Ron Petrilla, the Executive Director of the Greater Wilkes-Barre Association 
for the Blind.
    They will discuss their vision screening programs for youngsters, adults, 
and seniors.  In addition, the many eye safety and health programs and the low 
cost eye glass labs available to area residents.
    The panel will also talk about their life skills and other programs for 
those who are blind.   Demonstrations of several useful products for those who 
are visually impaired those are available at local Blind Associations.
    This is a very informative program for everyone with a vision concern.
WBRE-TV Newsmakers will air this Sunday, October 28th at 5:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. 
and will repeat on November 4th at 5:30 a.m.
